"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Avengers cast talks about female-lead action movies.

EW: So you think the problem is just too much focus on the sexuality of female superheroes?

Johansson: Yeah, I think they’re always fighting in a bra, so while it might be exciting for a still photo, it’s ridiculous. One of the most exciting thing about [The Avengers,] is that in my opening scene the first thing you see is my character getting punched in the face. Everybody’s like, ‘Damn, it’s nice to see a girl get the sh-t kicked out of her–

Jackson: [Interupting] They also want to know where you get that no-bruise make-up.

Whedon: Wait, you need to let her finish this thought, or this is going to transcribe really badly.

Johansson: [Throws arms up] And then Sam Jackson talks more about the g-string!

Jackson: No! F–k no! I’m in one of the best woman-action-movies ever f–king made — The Long Kiss Goodnight.

Downey: Damn right.

Jackson: Geena Davis f–king kicks ass in that. She is totally dope in that one.

Johansson: There are good ones. And Geena Davis is the perfect woman to be that.

Jackson: They just had no idea how to market that f–king movie — at that time. [The 1996 movie -- written by Iron Man 3 filmmaker Shane Black -- underperformed at the box office, but has since become a cult favorite.]

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

My coworker just told me some comic book shit about a possible female villain -- something about Thanos and Lady Death? So that could be interesting, I guess.

Some horses just love to jump or - the downside of teaching your horse to run and jump large obstacles.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Jesse, that was definitely Thanos in the first after-credits scene. And he "courts death" literally in the comics.

That's exactly what my coworker said, and now is literally all I know about that. But, you know, I'm all for female bad guys. In general.
